The message
from "Andrew Mawson" contains
these words:

Now most light are
low energy I don't expect a re-occurance.

Are you sure you should have admitted that given the attitude of some of
our regulars to low energy bulbs. :-)

On a related note I recently had a low energy bulb fail and when I took
it out burnt my fingers (on its fat plastic waist, not the glass
envelope) so these bulbs can run very hot as they fail.
